Abstract:
Розглянуто кримінологічну характеристику особи, котра вчиняє злочини в умовах війни.
Виділено особливості такої характеристики, зокрема: особа, котра вчиняє злочин в умовах війни, є
найменш дослідженою; суб’єктом такого злочину є військовослужбовець російської федерації або
колаборант із-поміж громадян України; вчинення злочинів в умовах війни свідчить про багатоаспектність
поведінки особи, її біологічні, фізіологічні, соціальні та морально-психологічні властивості.
Сформульовано авторське визначення особи, котра вчиняє злочини в умовах війни в
Україні. Доведено, що особа, котра вчиняє злочин в умовах війни в Україні, має розглядатися
кримінологами не як певна абстракція (ідеальна модель), а як людська істота, котрій у результаті
соціальної патології притаманне відчуження від нормальних людських цінностей і котра в певних
часових межах набула аморальності, імпульсивності та агресивності до інших людей. The article examines the criminological characteristics of a person who commits
crimes during the war in Ukraine. It is proven that the study of a person who commits a crime has always
been and remains one of the central problems of all sciences of the criminal law cycle. Criminology is no
exception, because it considers the person of the criminal as a person who has moral-psychological,
physiological, social and biological properties.
Therefore, the study of the criminological characteristics of a person who commits crimes in the
conditions of war in Ukraine made it possible to identify not only the determinants of the commission by servicemen of the russian federation or collaborators among citizens of Ukraine in illegal actions on the territory
of occupied cities and villages, as well as to reveal the mechanism of their criminal, aggressive behavior.
Considering the fact that criminological science is just beginning to study a person who
commits crimes in the conditions of war, we must come to an understanding of the essence of the concept
of such a criminal, since the appearance of various approaches to its definition is due to the period of
time, namely the russian-Ukrainian war.
The article highlights the features of this characteristic, in particular; a person who commits a
crime in the conditions of war in Ukraine is the least investigated; the subject of the crime can be a
serviceman of the russian federation or a collaborator among citizens of Ukraine. Committing crimes in
the conditions of war shows the multifaceted nature of a person's behavior, his/her biological,
physiological, social and moral-psychological properties.
The author's definition of the criminological characteristics of a person who commits crimes in
the conditions of the russian-Ukrainian war is formulated - this is a human being who, as a result of social
pathology, has become alienated from normal human values, and who, within certain time frames, has
acquired immorality, impulsiveness and aggressive criminal behavior towards another person .
It is noted that a statistical portrait of a criminal in wartime can be formed by interviewing
russian prisoners of war, collaborators among Ukrainian citizens, as well as those who will serve real
sentences for crimes committed in Ukraine during the russian-Ukrainian war.
In general, summarizing the positions of domestic scientists regarding a comprehensive study of
the criminological characteristics of a person who commits a crime in the conditions of war in Ukraine,
we will draw the following conclusions:
1) the effectiveness of any research, and this research is not an exception, should be provided
with a scientific, theoretical and practical basis for the criminological characterization of a person who
commits war crimes and crimes related to such a war in the conditions of war in Ukraine;
2) it is proven that a person who commits a crime in the conditions of war in Ukraine should
be considered by criminologists not as a certain abstraction (ideal model), but as a human being who, as a
result of social pathology, is inherently alienated from normal human values, and who in certain time
frames, acquired immorality, impulsiveness and aggressiveness towards other people.
